As a light snow fell, Sand Creek's John Olsen hit a home run in
the fifth inning and the Scorpions scored nine in the top of the
seventh to beat Cheyenne Mountain 11-6 and claim their first Class 4A
Metro League baseball title.
"As a team we are all very excited," Sand Creek coach Steve Rowley
said Friday at Cheyenne Mountain. "I'm proud of the team and it's
really nice to give our school this first title."
The Pikes Peak No. 2 Scorpions (12-5, 11-3) will take the top seed
from the Class 4A Metro League into next week's district playoffs.
Cheyenne Mountain (No. 1, 14-4, 11-3), No. 5 Widefield, No. 6 Liberty
and No. 9 Woodland Park also earned playoff berths.
